"Rahul-Occupied Congress": BJP's Anurag Thakur's Sharp Attack In Lok Sabha
New Delhi: BJP MP Anurag Thakur on Monday launched a scathing attack on Congress MP and Leader of the Opposition (LoP) Rahul Gandhi during a debate on Operation Sindoor in the Lok Sabha, claiming India fought a "two-and-a-half front war" with the "half front" being the "Rahul-Occupied Congress." "India fought on two and a half fronts, everyone knows about the two fronts, but in this half front, there is also a Rahul Occupied Congress," Anurag Thakur said, adding, "Look at the social media, in the last two months, Rahul Occupied Congress has made disgusting and insulting cartoons against the Prime Minister and the Indian Occupied Congress called the Army chief a roadside goon. Rahul Gandhi should apologise to the entire country and the Indian Army..." Anurag Thakur went on to target Rahul Gandhi personally, calling him the "poster boy" of Pakistani propaganda. "Let me tell you, the leader you talk about, twice the people of the country did not even give him enough votes to become the leader of the opposition... He has become LoB from LoP (Leader of Opposition). LoB stands for Leader Opposing Bharat. Opposing India and the Prime Minister is his agenda. I don't know whether he becomes the poster boy of Congress or not, but he has become the poster boy of Pakistan's propaganda", he said. While referring to Congress MP P Chidambaram's recent remarks on Operation Sindoor, Anurag Thakur accused the party of questioning India's intelligence inputs. "Today, discussion on Operation Sindoor was to take place in the House, but there was a competition among the leaders of Congress as to who should come forward as the closest friend and dearest to Pakistan. In the interview given by a former Home Minister yesterday, he said- If Pakistan did not have a hand in this, how can you say that the terrorists came from Pakistan?... Sometimes they call it Hindu terrorism, sometimes they come to defend Pakistan," he said. The former Union Minister also accused the Congress of aligning with Pakistan's interests, saying, "There are so many big advocates of Pakistan in the Congress party today that Pakistan defends itself later, and Congress leaders come to defend them. The Pakistani army and the Pakistani government are using the brothers of Lashkar-e-Rahul in their favour... Although it is INC, but from their statements and actions, it looks like it has become Islamabad National Congress..." Anurag Thakur also criticized the Opposition for their response to Defence Minister Rajnath Singh's statement in the House. "Of all the opposition MPs who have spoken here till now, not even one MP has stood up and said that in this terrorist attack, people were asked about his religion and asked to recite Kalma, their pants were removed and then they were killed. Tell me what pain did the Opposition MPs have in saying this? When the Defence Minister was discussing the achievements of the Indian Army, there was no applause, no one was thumping the table..." he said. The Lok Sabha on Monday afternoon began discussion on 'India's strong, successful and decisive Operation Sindoor, launched in response to the recent terrorist attack in Pahalgam. The debate was initiated by Defence Minister Rajnath Singh.

Operation Sindoor debate: ‘From LoP to LoB – Leader Opposing Bharat' - Anurag Thakur slams Rahul Gandhi in Lok Sabha
NEW DELHI: BJP MP Anurag Thakur on Monday launched a scathing attack on leader of opposition Rahul Gandhi during a discussion on Operation Sindoor in the Lok Sabha, accusing him of consistently opposing India and aligning with Pakistan's propaganda. 'He has become LoB from LoP. LoB stands for Leader Opposing Bharat. Opposing India and the Prime Minister is his agenda,' Thakur said, adding, 'I don't know whether he becomes the poster boy of Congress or not, but he has become the poster boy of Pakistan's propaganda.' The remarks came during a debate in the Monsoon session, where the BJP leader criticised Gandhi for his alleged silence on the brutal details of the Pahalgam terror attack and the opposition's overall stance. 'Of all the opposition MPs who have spoken here till now, not even one MP has stood up and said that in this terrorist attack, people were asked about his religion and asked to recite Kalma, their pants were removed and then they were killed. Tell me what pain did the opposition MPs have in saying this?' Thakur questioned. He further said, 'When the defence minister was discussing the achievements of the Indian Army , there was no applause, no one was thumping the table,' pointing towards the lack of support from the opposition benches even during moments meant to honour India's armed forces. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Brain tumor has left my son feeling miserable; please help!

The BJP MP's fiery comments reflect the ruling party's sharp pushback against the opposition's questioning of government actions in Jammu and Kashmir and underline the increasingly polarised political narrative in Parliament.
